D is for…

DJ is the best nephew a person could have! All round good guy, puffle and poodle wrangler and there’s some fabulous interior design happening in his igloo at Club Penguin and it got me thinking…

…I think we need a Club Kitchen along the same lines. Not Second Life, too creepy, but a kitchen to fill with the latest gadgets, cupboards to stock, ovens to watch, teaparties, bun rolling competitions. Everyone could come, young and old, children and parents, dogs and cats, no health and safety, no people getting mad because a baby is crying. You could turn up as a celebrity chef if you felt the need. Though I can’t imagine one I’d like to be, apart from Keith Floyd or maybe the Galloping Gourmet.

I’d like to visit the Old Blog Library room round the corner from Club Kitchen where old bread blogs rise and fall, propped up by Kilner jars frothing over with levain, where the distilled wisdom of observation and imagery of a thousand garden bloggers is covered in a fine layer of pale green seedlings, jostling with the constantly restless travel blogs, the fluttering silks of the fashion blogs and the hum of the working science blogs. And maybe there’s a Gorilla in there too, I’m straying into Terry Pratchett territory here though and will stop.

We repeat ourselves over and over, endlessly looking for the right words, a way to express something that matters, that makes sense of the world we inhabit, the inner space and the outer world melting into each other. It’s all in the details for Darthjelly in his igloo, and me in my library. I love the details!

Got it, and I’ve created one of my own. What fun!! Thanks for all the effort that you put into links and explanations and goodness knows what more … The words: Wow, gem, gosh and treasure come to mind. ;D

One wordle is enough for me I think this time round… but they are always worth playing with. I found a lovely wordle variation which made shapes in the forms of apples and stars and rabbits, but I think you need a Windows based computer to use the programme. :)

Delightful post, these are so fun to read Joanna! Club kitchen is an excellent idea, I wish there could be a real life version, but maybe like a holodeck for something from Startrek. When I think of ‘D’ I naturally think of my wonderful husband, Dean, and my dog, Tucker.

That was such fun Joanna. I love the idea of Club Kitchen – please, please can I be Digella? I love the idea of the old Blog Library room, I think it would like something like that beautiful old Pharmacy on BDL’s blog.
